How to use an PDF viewer in Flex mobile

votes

I am developing a mobile application in Flex in Adobe Flash buillder 4.6 that will run on Android and iOS.

I need a way to view PDF files stored in the application storage directory. Searched in several forums and none of the suggestions worked for me.

In iOS'm using a StageWebView but Android still have not found a working solution.

Can be used ANE or not. It needs to work offline, so I can not use google docs as a proxy.

Any suggestions?

So what's wrong with StageWebView on Android platform? - average dev
This does not work to view PDF on Android. When I load the file on StageWebView the view is blank. Must be the same happens when I try to view the pdf by Android browser, it downloads rather than viewing the file. My code is: var pdf:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath(file); stageWebView.loadURL("file:" + pdf.nativePath); - mow
Yea, looks like a problem. Same question and answers here btw stackoverflow.com/questions/6184927/… . So if GPU rendering still doesn't help, then good look with ANE solutions. - average dev
Thanks for your time. I think I'll have to use even the ANE. I was trying to escape it. But while the Adobe does not solve this problem natively on mobile air. We'll have to use tricks not so beautiful. - mow
Share your experience after that!) - average dev

I solved as was mentioned earlier. Continued using webview in iOS and a ANE made a call to the Android application registered to open PDF.

Sorry for delay in giving feedback.

Thans for all
